Exclamation LS turbo tune on B20B turbo?

i need some feedback......so i just swapped a b20b in my eg after blowing the b16, my roomate victor has an ecu with his old built ls turbo 309 hp at 10 psi tune

the question is how safe or not would it be to run this tune on my hatch when i put the kit back on, both motors non vtec but have a different bore 81mm and 84mm

feedback would be nice thanks people

also i do have a smaller turbo but the same injector size for the map

Each motor, turbo, manifold, setup is going to react differently. You need to get it done by a tuner and not risk blowing this one up. Look up Accuracy's number and ask them about tuning

Honda ECUs don't have any wastegate control, and they will run based on whatever manifold pressure you have, so a difference in boost pressure isn't a problem.

So yes, it's possible to use that tune, and it may run OK, but it would be better to get tuned for you particular setup. I'm sure your buddy's car had more differences than just the turbo and bore size..

It's just never a good idea to use a tune that is optimized for someone else's car.
